She Didn’t Burn - The Gloom | Steampunk Sci-Fi Series - Episode 2

The Crown held a funeral for the engineer who climbed down. The coffin was empty. He is alive — and he is about to give the city below something it has never had: a sun of its own. In THE GLOOM — Episode 2, Caspian Ashcombe is declared dead above the clouds while below, the uprising shows him what they have hidden for twenty years: the stolen heart of a Crown machine, a hollow sun, fed one drop of light at a time. If he can climb the dead pipe into the cloud and reopen a valve no one has touched in two decades, every lantern in the canyon will burn again. But his fiancée has seen his face in the dark — and the woman beside him. Lady Solenne Vayre is not coming down for Caspian. She is coming for Iris. Brass hounds hunt by heat. Lighthouse-headed Wardens turn light into a weapon. A salvage captain with a mechanical arm sails a mirror-winged ship out of the sea fog. And when Iris is finally dragged into the sun — the thing that should happen does not. A cinematic steampunk dystopia set in a far-future London, where sunlight is piped like water, the rich play games with the eyes of the poor, and the lower city is about to light itself.
